From the pages of History

Those near and dear: A family man at heart.

Dr. Jayant N Saraiya passed away on 3rd December 2016, at the age of 85 years after an enviable career in the medical field. He was born in Rajkot, to Shri Narottamdas M Saraiya and Smt. Devikaben N Saraiya, (originally Gondal inhabitants) from the Navgam Bhatia community. He was the eldest of the six siblings- a role model, a mentor and a source of inspiration to them all.

He was a devoted husband to Mrs. Jaya J Saraiya having been married to her for a good 58 years, a loving father to a son and a daughter, having an affectionate daughter-in-law, was a caring grandfather, a pride of his family's nieces, nephews, in-law's and all others in the family. He adored his two pet dogs, Donna and Pavlov who abundantly reciprocated their unconditional love to him.

He was fondly loved by his family and friends, but more importantly admired by his many patients for his kindness, empathy, and caring nature. He was forthright, instilled optimism and hope by his smiling demeanor, unassuming simplicity and an unwavering resolve that gave courage to his patients in their fight against cancer.

Education: Dr. Saraiya's early education was in Rajkot, thereafter at a school in Malad after family's arrival in Mumbai, secondary education was at Bharda School and under-graduation was from Siddhartha College after moving to Kalbadevi. He was an intelligent and a bright student who excelled in studies and whose love for reading was insatiable from his early childhood. As a child he read newspapers and literary pieces to his doting grandfather who had failing eyesight thereby enabling his grandfather to see through his eyes, reading became a habit that nurtured over time became an enduring lifestyle and his signature hobby.

One uncommon cancer surgeon : One exemplary life.

A tribute to Dr. Jayant N. Saraiya (MS, FACS, FICS)


Dr. Saraiya received his MBBS and MS degrees from Topiwala National Medical College and BYL Nair Charitable Hospital, affiliated to the Bombay University. Post-graduate education particularly in medicine in those days was scarce amongst Bhatia doctors who largely limited themselves to general practice and could be finger-counted. Dr. Saraiya motivated by his strong desire for higher education acquired the unique distinction of being the first general surgeon in the entire Bhatia community in 1961.

Humble beginnings- as a general practitioner:In 1956, Dr. Saraiya along with his parents and siblings moved to Santacruz (W) in the newly formed, Sir. Vithaldas Nagar Colony enshrining a Muralidhar temple, a centerpiece that embellished a picturesque residency. Smt. Lady Thackersey, a kind and progressive lady with infinite wisdom, probably keeping in mind that Dr.Saraiya would be a right fit as a tenant in the colony invited him to come and stay in this idyllic location with an offer to open a dispensary in the same colony premises as a general-practitioner: to assure the health needs and well-being of her tenants, treating them in their illness, and also providing preventative care for the common childhood illnesses.

Dr. Saraiya considered a great honor and pride to start his career in general- practice in the colony. He often cherished the fond memories as a primary care doctor serving the members of the colony and adjacent neighborhood, winning their trust and developing life-long strong bonds with their families.

A surgeon and a cancer specialist:Dr. Saraiya joined the Tata Memorial Cancer Hospital as a research fellow under Dr. DJ Jussawalla in 1956 and in course of time became an assistant surgeon to the world famed cancer surgeon, Dr. Ernest Borges. Dr. Saraiya's career as a surgical oncologist at Tata Hospital spanned over 30 years. During his tenure, he held positions as a chief of different surgical services that included but were not limited to cancers of the breast, gynecological cancers, and cancer of the bones and soft tissues. In the absence of Medical Oncology as a separate subspecialty in the 1960's and even much later, the surgeons were relegated to not only performing surgical procedures, but also the administration of appropriate chemotherapeutic agents, a position that served as a link to trained modern–day medical oncologists.

Dr. Saraiya's passion for training himself in the field of

chemotherapy grew naturally, perhaps realizing early in his formative years the limitations of different modalities of cancer treatment including complex radical operations, and the indisputable value of combining different treatment modalities to optimize patient outcomes. Dr. Saraiya was a skilled surgeon, who played an increasing role as a chemotherapist (Medical Oncology) in those days to fill a vital, but unmet need of a cancer patient that could not be addressed by surgery or radiation alone, and in the process making him a well-rounded oncologist.

Dr. Saraiya was an unorthodox, open-minded oncologist who did not always conform to the run-of-the-mill prevalent deep-rooted practices, but explored newer approaches in both pre-operative and post- operative settings, a practice often derided, but occasionally receiving accolades from his own peer for challenging the dogmas. He realized that the understanding of the (biology) behavior and treatment of cancer was in its infancy and progress would be sought by pushing the envelope in unchartered waters with a keen eye, refined


judgment and careful scientific analysis. He was unabashed of trying something new and was clearly ahead of his times foreseeing some of the recent day advances. He was well aware of the toxicities of systemic chemotherapy and was one-of-a-kind to use intra-arterial chemotherapy for some aggressive childhood bone cancers with an aim to deliver the medication in higher concentration directly to the tumor while limiting its systemic toxicity. This approach was cumbersome and not employed readily in India, but used in western countries. He had tried this approach in the treatment of hepatic and head and neck tumors as well.

Training abroad: He was sent to the USA by Tata Memorial Hospital for further training and spent time at the Lahey Clinic in 1966 as a clinical assistant under Dr. R D Sullivan, learning about newer modalities in cancer treatment. He was nominated and awarded the UICC and other fellowships as an international recipient again traveling to the USA, to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York and MD Anderson Cancer Center in Texas to broaden his perspective and getting familiarized with newer advances.He was often a delegate-cum- tourist to local, regional and international conferences to present scientific papers in several countries within Europe and South America, Singapore, Philippines, Pakistan and the Middle East.

Humanitarian work:Dr. Saraiya organized many Cancer detection camps, principally in the underserved Vidharbha area of Maharashtra, under the auspices of the Vidarbha Cancer Research Center where he was a founding member and an advisor. These frequent and well-concerted efforts orchestrated with dedicated volunteers in organizing cancer camps, played a salutary role of raising the awareness for early detection of cancer in the community. The dates of cancer camps were publicized well in advance in local newspapers and by radio, and drew a large number of people from rural districts in Vidarbha area. The team of doctors emphasized the role of cancer prevention by educating and assisting them in breaking their pernicious habit of tobacco addiction and enforcing positive lifestyle modifications, informing patients about not ignoring the common symptoms of cancer thereby again helping them in the early diagnosis, facilitating their treatment by arranging for subsidized transport to regional places or Bombay, obtaining tissue biopsy or cytological material for diagnosis, treatment of precancerous conditions, emphasizing about the need for

regular surveillance, referral of the less advantaged people who could not bear the cost of travel to Bombay to either local or regional centers.

Dr. Saraiya received widespread popularity due to his commitment and perseverance and was showered praises by the local media and newspapers. He was often praised and recognized by political leaders such as Mr. Sharad Pawar, Mr. Ghulam Nabi Azad, Mr. Sudhakarrao Naik to name a few for his humanitarian work.

He arranged similar cancer detection camps in Mahuva, (Bhavnagar district) and in recognition of his services was facilitated by the organizers and given an honorable citation at the auspicious hands of respected Shri. Morari Bapu. He also accompanied his other colleagues to similar camps in Morvi, Gondal, Veraval, Anjar, Miraj, Mysore, Mandsaur, Rajasthan and elsewhere and shared his experience with his other colleagues.


He had arranged for a Cancer detection camp at Mahajan wadi in Kalbadevi under the auspices of Shri. Navgam Bhatia Mitra Mandal, with the aim to spreading the awareness of early detection of cancer, emphasizing about the need for prompt treatment after its diagnosis and promoting wellness within the Bhatia community by educating about the benefits of good addiction-free life. The drive was well attended and well received amongst the Bhatia community members, a first of its kind effort and attended by respected dignitaries such as Shri. KMD Thackersey, Shri. Jagesh Desai (Ex- MP Rajya Sabha).

Ancillary degrees, a post-graduate teacher, professional memberships and a consultant: He became a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS) and also a Fellow of the International College of Surgeons (FICS). He was a professor of Surgery in the Bombay University guiding postgraduate students registered under him as their teacher at the Tata Memorial Hospital for qualifying MS degree.

He was an active member of the Santacruz Medical Association, Indian Medical Association, General Practitioners Association, Gastroenterology Society of India and a member of Association of Surgeons of India. He was an office bearer of Indian Association of Surgical Oncology.

As a consultant in surgical oncology, he was often invited as a speaker in seminars pertaining to the diagnosis and management of different cancers. He played an active role in the continuing medical educational activities of the community doctors and general practitioners, particularly in the C and D municipal wards.

He was an honorary consultant at Bhatia General Hospital, Bharatiya Arogya Nidhi, Sir. H N Hospital, Jaslok Hospital and Central Railway Hospital, besides having his own consulting room near Kennedy Bridge that was inaugurated by Shri. Sudhakarrao Naik. (Honarable Chief Minister of Maharashtra)

He was interviewed on television as an invited guest on Mumbai Doordarshan (Gher-Betha) for cancer-related talk in September-1975.

In his non-medical capacity he served as a special executive magistrate for many years.

Scientific Publications: He had several publications in Indian medical journals and a few in international peer-reviewed journals either as a principal or co-author.

Hobbies: He was an avid reader who delighted himself in studying disparate subjects such as history, geography, arts, classical literature, poetry, politics, or any contemporary literature that he laid his eyes and hands upon, which he read with great zeal and satisfaction. He relished reading his favorite Gujarati magazines that included the Jankalyan, Akhand Anand, Navanit, Chitralekha to name a few. He read with zest such classics as Himalaya No Pravas by Shri. Kakasaheb Kalelkar several times, and frequently acquainted himself with the writings of Shri. Kaniyalal Munshi, Shri. Jhaverchand Meghani, Shri. Mahadevbhai Desai, Kavi Narmad, Shri Uma Shankar Joshi, Kavi Dalpatram etc, which left a deep impression on his mind, immensely influencing his simple lifestyle and conscience.

He loved English literature and regularly read articles from the National Geographic, which was simply unputdownable for him, Time, The New Yorker, and The New York Times amongst others. During his stay in the USA, he often spent long hours in public libraries, remaining up late in the night to finish his daily quota of reading - forgetting his daily chores and oblivious of skipping meals. He had neatly piled books either of his own or borrowed from public libraries that he valued dearly. Relaxation and enjoyment to him were synonymous with reading and an inextricable part of his life that would become his legacy to the Saraiya family.

He was also fond of visiting different museums in various cities, botanical gardens, going to farmers market, he was a true nature lover, planted trees and plants in the local community, he loved classical vocal singing and instrumental music, songs by KL Saigal and so forth.

He was a devout student of yoga at a senior center in New York City, learning pranayama from an elderly lady who fondly remembers him as a very dedicated student.

Dr. Jayant Saraiya will be truly missed by his family and friends for his way of life and the deep impression he has made by example.

At the prodding of my friends I am writing this story. My name is Mildred Honor. I am a former elementary school Music Teacher from Des Moines, Iowa.

I have always supplemented my income by Teaching Piano Lessons...Something I have done for over 30 years. During those years, I found that Children have many levels of musical ability, and even though I have never had the prodigy, I have taught some very talented students. However, I have also had my share of what I call 'Musically Challenged Pupils.

One such Pupil being Robby. Robby was 11 years old when his Mother (a Single Mom) dropped him off for his first Piano Lesson.

I prefer that Students (especially Boys) begin at an earlier age, which I explained to Robby. But Robby said that it had always been his Mother's Dream to hear him play the Piano, so I took him as a Student.

At the end of each weekly Lesson he would always say 'My Mom's going to hear me Play someday.' But to me, it seemed hopeless, he just did not have any Inborn Ability.I only knew his Mother from a distance as she dropped Robby off or waited in her aged Car to pick him up. She always waved and smiled, but never dropped in;

Then one day Robby stopped coming for his Lessons. I thought about calling him, but Assumed that because of his lack of Ability he had decided to pursue something else. I was also glad that he had stopped coming. He was a Bad Advertisement for my Teaching!

Several Weeks later I mailed a flyer recital to the Students' homes. To my surprise, Robby (who had received a flyer) asked if he could be in the Recital. I told him that the Recital was for current Pupils and that because he had dropped out, he really did not Qualify.

He told me that his Mother had been Sick and Unable to take him to his piano lessons, but that he had been practicing. 'Please Miss Honor, I've just got to Play,' he insisted. I don't know what led me to allow him to play in the Recital - perhaps it was his insistence or maybe something inside of me saying that it would be all right;

The night of the Recital came and the high school gymnasium was packed with Parents, Relatives and Friends. I put Robby last in the Program, just before I was to come up and thank all the Students and Play a finishing piece. I thought that any damage he might

True Story...

do would come at the end of the Program and I could always salvage his poor performance through my 'Curtain Closer'.

Well, the Recital went off without a Hitch, the Students had been Practicing and it Showed. Then Robby came up on the stage. His Clothes were Wrinkled and his Hair looked as though he had run an egg beater through it. 'Why wasn't he dressed up like the other Students?' I thought. 'Why didn't his Mother at least make him Comb his Hair for this Special Night?'

Robby pulled out the Piano bench, and I was Surprised when he announced that he had chosen to play Mozart's Concerto No.21 in C Major. I was not prepared for what I heard next. His fingers were light on the keys, they even danced nimbly on the Ivories. He went from Pianissimo to Fortissimo, from Allegro to Virtuoso; his Suspended Chords that Mozart demands were Magnificent! Never had I heard Mozart played so well by anyone his age.

After six and a half minutes, he ended in a Grand Crescendo, and everyone was on their feet in Wild Applause!!! Overcome and in Tears, I ran up on stage and put my arms around Robby in Joy;

'I have never heard you Play like that Robby, how did you do it?' Through the Microphone Robby explained: 'Well, Miss Honor, Remember I told you that my Mom was sick? Well, she actually had Cancer and Passed Away this Morning. And well... she was Born Deaf, so tonight was the first time she had ever heard me Play, and I wanted to make it Special.,

There wasn't a Dry Eye in the house that evening. As People from Social Services led Robby from the stage to be placed in to Foster Care, I noticed that even their Eyes were red and Puffy. I thought to myself then how much Richer my Life had been for taking Robby as my Pupil.

No, I have never had a Prodigy, but that night I became a Prodigy... of Robby. He was the Teacher and I was the Pupil, for he had taught me the meaning of Perseverance and Love and Believing in Yourself, and may be even taking a chance on someone and you didn't know why.

Robby was Killed years later in the Senseless Bombing of the Alfred P. Murray Federal Building in Oklahoma City in April, 1995

27 MAY 2014 : First cabinet decision - Formation of SIT to fight black money & corruption (which had been delayed by Congress since 4 years despite Supreme Court's orders)

11 MAY 2016 : Mauritius route of black money laundering put to an end. The Mauritius route accounted for 35% of overall black money investment in India. The bilateral treaty signed between India and Mauritius ended this practice.

5 SEP 2016 : PM Modi personally raises the issue of ending safe tax havens in Europe and other countries in the most important G20 meeting. All the major countries of G20 agreed to wage a war on money laundering, black money and terror funding on the call of PM Modi.

“Mobile chair for Car” Ha... Ha... Ha...

In 1998, Kodak had 170,000 employees and sold 85% of all photo paper worldwide. Within just a few years, their business model disappeared and they went bankrupt.

What happened to Kodak will happen in a lot of industries in the next 10 years - and most people don't see it coming.

Did you think in 1998 that 3 years later you would never take pictures on paper film again? Yet digital cameras were invented in 1975. The first ones only had 10,000 pixels, but followed Moore's law. So as with all exponential technologies, it was a disappointment for a long time, before it became way superior and got mainstream in only a few short years.

It will now happen with Artificial Intelligence, health, autonomous and electric cars, education, 3D printing, agriculture and jobs.

Welcome to the 4th Industrial Revolution.

Welcome to the Exponential Age.

Software will disrupt most traditional industries in the next 5-10 years.

UBER is just a software tool, they don't own any cars, and are now the biggest taxi company in the world.

AIRBNB is now the biggest hotel company in the world, although they don't own any properties.

Artificial Intelligence : Computers become exponentially better in understanding the world. This year, a computer beat the best Go player in the world, 10 years earlier than expected.

In the US, young lawyers already don't get jobs. Because of IBM Watson, you can get legal advice (so far for more or less basic stuff) within seconds, with 90% accuracy compared with 70% accuracy when done by humans. So if you study law, stop immediately. There will be 90% fewer lawyers in the future, only specialists will remain.

Watson already helps nurses diagnosing cancer, 4 times more accurate than human nurses.

Facebook now has a pattern recognition software that can recognize faces better than humans.

By 2030, computers will become more intelligent than humans.

Look at our next generation's amazing future

AUTONOMOUS CARS:

In 2018 the first self-driving cars will appear for the public. Around 2020, the complete industry will start to be disrupted. You don't want to own a car anymore. You will call a car with your phone, it will show up at your location and drive you to your destination. You will not need to park it, you only pay for the driven distance and can be productive while driving.

Our kids will never get a driver's license and will never own a car. It will change the cities, because we will need 90-95% fewer cars for that. We can transform former parking space into parks. 1.2 million people die each year in car accidents worldwide.

We now have one accident every 100,000 km, with autonomous driving that will^ drop to one accident in 10 million km. That will save a million lives each year.

Most car companies may become bankrupt.

Traditional car companies try the evolutionary approach and just build a better car, while tech companies (Tesla, Apple, Google) will do the revolutionary approach and build a computer on wheels.

A lot of engineers from Volkswagen and Audi are completely terrified of Tesla.

Insurance Companies will have massive trouble because without accidents, the insurance will become 100x cheaper. Their car insurance business model will disappear.

Real estate will change. Because if you can work while you commute, people will move further away to live in a more beautiful neighborhood. Electric cars won’t become mainstream until 2020. Cities will be less noisy because all cars will run on electric.

Electricity will become incredibly cheap and clean: Solar production has been on an exponential curve for 30 years, but you can only now see the impact. Last year, more solar energy was installed worldwide than fossil. The price for solar will drop so much that all coal companies will be out of business by 2025.With cheap electricity comes cheap and abundant water.

Desalination now only needs 2kWh per cubic meter.

We don't have scarce water in most places, we only have scarce drinking water.

Imagine what will be possible if anyone can have as much clean water as he wants, for nearly no cost.

Health: There will be companies that will build a medical device (called the "Tricorder" from Star Trek) that works with your phone, which takes your retina scan, your blood sample and you breathe into it. It then analyses 54 biomarkers that will identify nearly any disease. It will be cheap, so in a few years everyone on this planet will have access to world class medicine, nearly for free.

3D PRINTING:

The price of the cheapest 3D printer came down from $18,000 to $400 within 10 years. In the same time, it became 100 times faster.

All major shoe companies started 3D printing shoes.

Spare airplane parts are already 3D printed in remote airports.

The space station now has a printer that eliminates the need for the large number of spare parts they used to have in the past.

At the end of this year, new smart phones will have 3D scanning possibilities. You can then 3D scan your feet and print your perfect shoe at home.

In China, they already 3D printed a complete 6-storey office building. (!)

By 2027, 10% of everything that's being^ produced will be 3D printed.

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES:

If you think of a niche^ you want to go in, ask yourself: "in the future, do you think we will have that?" and if the answer is yes, how can you make that happen sooner? If it doesn't work with your phone, forget the idea.

And any idea designed for success in the 20th century is doomed in to failure in the 21st century.

WORK:

70-80% of jobs will disappear in the next 20 years. There will be a lot of new jobs, but it is not clear if there will be enough new jobs in such a small time.

AGRICULTURE:

There will be a $100 agricultural robot in the future.

Farmers in 3rd world countries can then become managers of their field instead of working all days in the hot sun on their fields. Agroponics will need much less water.

The first Petri dish produced veal (a kind of cow meat ) is now available and will be cheaper than cow-produced veal in 2018.

Right now, 30% of all agricultural surfaces is used for cows. Imagine if we don't need that space anymore.

There are several startups that will bring insect protein to the market shortly. It contains more protein than meat. It will be labeled as "alternative protein source" (because most people still reject the idea of eating insects).

There is an app called "moodies" which can already tell in which mood you are.

By 2020 there will be apps that can tell by your facial expressions if you are lying. Imagine a political debate where it's being displayed when they are telling the truth and when not.

Bitcoin will become mainstream this year and might even become the default reserve currency.

LONGEVITY:

Right now, the average life span increases by 3 months per year. Four years ago, the life span used to be 79 years, now it's^ 80 years. The increase itself is increasing and by 2036, there will be more than one year increase per year. So we all might live for a long long time, probably way more than 100.

EDUCATION:

The cheapest smart phones are already at $10 in Africa and Asia. By 2020, 70% of all humans will own a smart phone. That means, everyone has the same access to world class education.

Machine to machine communication and Home Automation in future will have to rely on RF, low power long distance vs GPRs/3g telecom

Look at our next generation's amazing future

Technological Progress We'll Reach By The Year 2030!

90% of the population will have unlimited and free data storage by 2018.

The first robotic pharmacist will arrive in the US 2021.

1 trillion sensors will be connected to the internet by 2022.

10% of the world's population will be wearing clothes connected to the internet by 2022.

Deleting files to make room for files is going to become a thing of the past. In less than three years, about 90% of people will have unlimited and free data storage that will ultimately be ad-supported, according to the report. We are already seeing some companies offer cheap or completely free service. For example, Google Photos already offers unlimited storage for photos and Amazon will let you store an unlimited amount of whatever you want for just $60 a year. A big reason companies can do this is because hard drive cost per gigabyte continues to fall. This has spurred more data to be created than ever before. According to the report, it's estimated about 90% of all data has been created in just the last two years. Still, there are signs this may not be the case. Microsoft recently killed its plan that offered unlimited storage on its cloud service OneDrive.

Robots already have a big presence in the manufacturing industry, but as they become more advanced we will see them enter new service-oriented jobs.In fact, respondents predict that by 2021, we will even have the first robot pharmacist in the US.

As the cost of sensors continues to decline and computing power increases, all kinds of devices will increasingly become connected to the internet. From the clothes you wear to the ground you walk on, everything will come online.According to the report, it's predicted 1 trillion sensors will be connected as early as 2022. “Every (physical) product could be connected to ubiquitous communication infrastructure, and sensors everywhere will allow people to fully perceive their environment.”

Cars, appliances, and other everyday objects are increasingly becoming more connected to the

internet. And not too long from now, even the clothes on our back will get a connection.By 2022, experts predict that 10% of people will be wearing clothing with embedded chips that connects them to the internet.This isn't really too surprising seeing as a number of accessories — including watches and rings— are already becoming connected.

3D printers are increasingly becoming more powerful and capable of printing complex objects from all kinds of materials. Many car companies are already using 3D printing to create prototypes and to more efficiently create specific parts of a vehicle. Most recently, Audi showed off a miniature vehicle it created using its metal printers. And the automotive startup Local Motors is aiming to begin production on a full-size car using 3D printing in the next few years. The company has already created several prototypes, and plans to sell a production model (shown above).

Being attached to your smartphone may take on a whole new meaning by 2023.About 80% of respondents predict that in seven years, the first implantable mobile phone will become commercially available. The device will potentially be able to track a person's health more accurately, while also allowing them to communicate thoughts via brainwaves or signal instead of verbally, according to the report. Implantable health devices, like pacemakers and cochlear implants, have already become more mainstream. And it's likely we'll see more widespread adoption of implantable technologies emerge before 2025.

As collecting, managing, and understanding data becomes easier, governments may move away from old methods of collecting information and begin to rely more on big data technologies to automate programs. According to the report, this is going to happen sooner than later. More than 80% of respondents

The first 3D-printed car will be in production by 2022.

The first implantable mobile phone will become commercially available in 2025.

The first government will replace its census with big-data technologies by 2023.

Technological Progress We'll Reach By The Year 2030!

estimate that the first government will replace the census with big-data systems by 2023. Some countries, including Canada, have already began experimenting with pulling back on traditional census methods; however, no country has completely replaced the system yet.

Interacting with the world around you will become a lot different when connected glasses become more common.86% of survey respondents predict connected eyewear will become common by 2023. The technology will allow wearers to have direct access to internet applications optimized for an enhanced or augmented reality experience. Eye-tracking technology will also let them to control the interface hands-free.Google, of course, already introduced similar technology with Google Glass and is currently working on connected contact lenses.

More people will gain a digital identity as internet connectivity becomes more prevalent.Respondents estimate that by 2023, more than 80% of the global population will have a digital presence. According to the report “digital life is becoming inextricably linked with a person's physical life,” and will only continue to grow in importance.Companies like Facebook and Google are pushing this effort ahead with various projects to connect remote parts of the world to the internet.

Digital currencies, like Bitcoin, use a mechanism called the blockchain to perform transactions. The blockchain is essentially a shared public ledger that everyone can inspect and no single person controls. Those using the system keep it up to date to continuously keep track of transactions.The blockchain technology, though, holds promise beyond Bitcoin. Some have proposed using the technology for public databases, like titles to land or other goods. According to recent article from the Economist, the NASDAQ is even about to start

10% of reading glasses will be connected to the internet by 2023.

80% of people on earth will have a digital presence online by 2023.

A government will collect taxes for the first time via blockchain 2023.

using the technology to record trading in securities of private companies.Blockchain technology is expected to reach its tipping point in the next few years, and by 2023, it's predicted that the first government will collect taxes using the technology.

Around the world people are increasingly using their smartphones more than PCs, and in developing nations people are becoming connected to the internet for the first time via their mobile phone. As smartphones gain computing power and the price continues to fall, the speed of adoption will only accelerate.The number of global smartphone subscribers is estimated to breach 50% penetration by 2017, and by 2023, about 90% of the population will be connected via smartphone.

According to the survey, 79% of respondents predict that by 2024, most of the world will have regular internet access.Tech giants like Google and Facebook are currently coming up with creative solutions to connect the remaining 4 billion people who don't have access to the internet. Facebook's Internet.org is using drones to beam internet down to Earth from satellites and Google's Project Loon is using giant balloons that float in the atmosphere to connect remote parts of the world.

3D printers are already increasingly used in the healthcare industry to create human parts, like bone replacements and organ implants. Doctors have already used 3D printing to create part of a patient's rib cage and other bone implants. But bioprinting, which combines bioengineering with 3D printing, will also enable researchers and others in the healthcare industry to grow usable artificial organs.

90% of the global population will have a supercomputer in their pocket by 2023.

Access to the internet will become a basic right by 2024.

The first transplant of a 3D-printed liver will occur by 2024.

By 2024, more than 50% of internet traffic to homes will be from appliances and devices.

A Farm Labourer From Jaisalmer Made His 6 Daughters Mayor, Doctors, Engineer & Even RPS Officer!

This is a story of an engineer whose 6 daughters are excelling in various fields, right from politics to law enforcement, and a son who is an engineer-turned-farmer with a turnover of crores.

What’s unique about this story? T h e r e a r e t h o u s a n d s o f engineers who have educated their children. But what if we tell you that this engineer was once a farm labourer and belongs to a village where daughters are considered a curse. What’s more, his daughters are the first-ever girls in their respective fields from Jaisalmer.

Rooparam Dhandev from Chelak village in Jaisalmer district of Rajasthan was born to a Dalit family. His father worked as a farm labourer in others’ land and struggled to make ends meet.

Little Rooparam went to the village school, which was only till class 5. But when he topped every year till that class, his teachers encouraged his father to take him to the nearest government school at Nachna, 275 km from Chelak.

As this school too taught only till class 9, Rooparam then had to move to Jaisalmer city where his school principal helped him choose his subject as mathematics.

Meanwhile, as per the tradition of child marriages in Rajasthan, Rooparam’s parents also got him married while he was studying in class 9. But this did not distract him from his studies. He again topped in class 11 with 83% and got selected as a patwari. He took up the job to support his family. However, looking at his caliber, one of his teachers pushed him to pursue engineering.

An engineering course would mean an extra five years before Rooparam could earn for his family. And he could not even afford the course. But this teacher took him to his home in Jodhpur and made sure he applied. Rooparam made it to the top list of merit students even in the general category, and bagged a seat in M.B.M. Engineering College, Jodhpur

Rooparam Dhandev’s seven children. Each one of them is an epitome of inspiration.

1. To plant your ideas in someone else's head.2. To put someone else's money in your own pocket.The one who succeeds in the first one is called a TEACHER.And the second is called a BUSINESSMAN. The one who succeeds in both is called a WIFEThe one who fails in both is called a HUSBAND!

Two difficult things to achieve!

God has given two invaluable gifts to us human beings ie Body & Soul. Everyone believes that once the soul has departed the body, the body does not remain useful & hence the same is being disposed off in different ways as in Hindus it is by cremating. But do you know that the body is very useful even after death. Whenever any person falls sick, person would like to consult the best possible doctor & get the best possible treatment for the patient. How would a doctor get ready with the in-depth knowledge of real human body without even touching or feeling the inside of the human body? Mere by studying anatomy text books students can never get enough knowledge of the human anatomy. Good doctors can be prepared only with practical experience on real human bodies. Everyone is aware that doctors do not get to have practical knowledge of human body since most human bodies are cremated after death & are not made available to the medical students in their colleges. Very rarely the medical colleges get the human body for the study voluntarily. On meeting with many educated persons about why the human bodies are disposed off in a way by persons, we were informed that mostly the cause is religious beliefs & sentiments. Even doctors themselves in case of any death of any of their relatives are hesitant in donating the body for the medical study.We Gondalia family on death of our beloved mother Smt Parvatiben Damodar Gondalia

thon 29 January 2017, at Vapi, voluntarily & out of conviction, decided not to go for cremation of the mortal remains of the departed soul, but to donate the same to Valsad Medical Collage in Gujarat. Basic idea is to ensure that many medical students get to develop their knowledge of intricacies of human body & enhance their knowledge for ensuring improved treatment to the patients for betterment of the society. Please note that there are various possibilities of donating either the body or organs of the body.

No Cremation, But Donation !!

a) In case of normal death, body must be deposited with the G o v e r n m e n t c i v i l hospital within around 3 to 4 hours of death. This is required to ensure that body does not start decomposing.

b) In case of person being brain dead, ie where the organs of the body are stil l functioning but doctors inform that the brain has stopped working & there is absolutely no chance of survival of the patient, hospitals including private hospitals can be informed about the intention of the relatives to donate the organs of the body. Select organs like kidney, liver, heart, pancreas, skin & eyes are transplanted in such cases from the brain dead to the needy ones whose life can be saved.

c) In other cases of death, where neither body donation is feasible or organ donation is possible due to death arising out of some acute infectious sickness, it may be feasible atleast to donate the cornea of the eyes to the needy.

We once again pray for the eternal peace to the departed soul of our beloved Parvatiben who not only during her life has shown us the path of religiousness but even after death has shown us the ways to attain “Moksha” & getting the place under the feet of Shreejibawa.

Regards

Gondalia FamilyJamnagar.
